The Invisible Becomes Visible

The millions of people excluded from access to justice remain largely invisible, so much so that political parties simply ignore their interests and have no ambition to create the type of access which would merit the use of the word justice. Read this to understand the shocking degree to which people are excluded from justice. How abject the speech of Andy Slaughter to the CLSA conference on Friday 31st October, his party having completely abandoned any sense of their historical commitment to justice or in practical terms the commitment to equality of arms and a fair trial. No matter how they huff and puff about the Coalition’s record their decision to restore not a single penny of the cuts to legal aid is a monumental disgrace.
